According to the company, the pressure forces are always bal- anced regardless of the poppet position. This, plus the series' electromagnet and high-energy return spring, reportedly provides the solenoid valves with extra reserve forces to operate the valve. The valves provide bubble tight shutoff and operate from vacuum to maximum pressure rating of 6,000 psi, available for either DC or AC use.

Cygnus Upgrades Gauge Range

Cygnus Instruments has upgraded the elec- tronics in its range of ultrasonic thickness gauges to fall in line with EMC regulations. Improved features include a 100 percent larger display on the Cygnus 1 range, and the models are now intrinsically safe and operate underwater. The gauges also have a wide measurement range — now to 200 mm. All Cygnus instruments use the multiple echo technique enabling measurements to be taken without removing protective coatings.

Westfalia's Unitrol Achieves Less Than 1% Water In Oil

What Westfalia calls a new generation of min- eral oil separators equipped with the Unitrol system has been developed for the treatment of a wide range of fuel and lube oils. This separator technology has been supplemented by the separa- tor model OSC 4, designed for the low capacity range (rated capacity up to 3,100 1/h).

The new bowl ejection system (Hydro-Stop) reportedly ensures precise and fast solids ejec- tion. The solids are highly concentrated. Product losses are reportedly avoided and disposal costs minimized. According to Westfalia, the Unitro system guarantees water-free clean oil by means of the water monitoring system (WMS).

The volume of separated foreign matter in the solids holding space is ad- ditionally moni- tored by means of the sludge monitor- ing system (SMS).

The bowl ejec- tions are performed at the optimum mo- ment. This pat- ented system re- portedly ensures optimal separation efficiency even in critical situations.

Westfalia also says this patented system offers new possibilities for the treatment of oil-wa- ter-solids mixtures on board ships. The heart of the system is the mineral oil separator type ESC 4. T1 separator is likewise equipped with the Unit] system and operates on a liquid-oriented princii based on the WMS. Oil-water-solids mixtures a de-watered, whereby the residual oil is recover and the solids concentrated. The de-watered a de-oiled solids are extremely compact. The phase discharging through the clean oil outlet 1 a water content of less than one percent. The content in the separated water is likewise bel one percent. The solids volume is reduced approximately 10 percent.
